Really ok cheers I'll consider them too. For OZ F1s the correct fitment is 195/50 R15 isn't it.

Oh really cheers man I will look into that. Nice to have somewhere local ish. How was your ring trip??

I'm after a set of these. Wondered where's best to buy them. I've come across a few posts for group buys on these and discounts offered from some members. Is there anything along these lines actually happening? Remember some members mentioning they can get very cheap prices from their suppliers.

Thanks. I'll check the discs for pad deposits. But if there is I would have thought it would be easy ish to pick up. He was aware the pads needed filing down for proper fitments so he did so. Before buying anything new I'm going to pass all this info onto him and get him to check it all...

They look lovely. For track wheels though of course. Lovely colour.

Will do George thanks mate. I'm kinda hoping it is the discs that have warped, purely because it will be the cheapest way to a solution. Rather than having to get a new caliper if that is the case.

Serious lol! Can't believe mine have potentially warped in under 2000 miles :( duff batch maybe :S

Thanks Chip, appreciate your comments. I never touch my brakes personally so I'll hand it over to my mechanic. I will however check all four pads are evenly worn. Had a brief look at the outside ones on the day and they were but will now properly check all four. Will also get him to check...

Cheers mate :) So I'm assuming when they get hotter on track after a couple of laps they are so out of shape that something is rubbing the caliper? If not what else would cause the juddering etc.. I also take it that warped disc will cause uneven pad wear? I'll probably just buy another set...

This. Plug your phone in, back it up. Wipe it. Plug the new phone in and restore from back up. Done. No fiddling around for no reason. Did exactly this the other day.

I often get fade, and I think I might have warped discs now lol, but I'm not sure how I tell. The only thing you have different to me is Yozza brake ducts. I've have taken out the fog lights and all the arch lining though, so there is plenty of direct airflow to around the brake area. Really...

Anyone else got any ideas for me? :cool:

Just looked. Seems like £120 odd for fronts.. http://www.motorsportworld.co.uk/frame-detail.asp?PAGE=/mintex-m1155-pads.htm

Because they were expensive and I want to get use out of them lol. Keep saying maybe it's just me, I'll see how they get on the next time. Plus I'm lazy!! Think I'll give the Mintex a go next time. Heard good stuff about them. Will have a quick look at the price now.

What would you recommend Dan? I have been running DS2500 for the last 4 track days and I have to say I'm not very happy with them!

That's a lot of money!! Thanks for sharing. Some very interesting stats there..

Also what's the main cause or warping then? Haven't had them on long...

Really.. hmmm ok thanks I'll bare that in mind. I did check them, but to see if they were lipped. Would I have not noticed if they were warped? Or if not me, at least my mechanic?? Or is it easy to miss?

On the last session on my last trackday my brakes felt really odd. Under high-ish load they were making the whole car really judder. At first I actually thought I had a flat tyre, that's what it felt like. It was really off putting. So naturally I stopped and had a little inspection to see...

NIce. When you sprayed your inlets. Did you take it off or mask up around it not to overspill? EDIT: Ignore that just read your post above. Seems like so much of a job taping everything up. Did you just do the bits the eye can see or completely under the inlet too? Don't want to do mine...

Amazes me how people can think the car actually looks good when doing all that tacky sh*t!!!

Re: Audi TT Quattro Sport - Clio trophy 147/500 replacement! I <3 GRIP

They look bloody awesome!!! What state were yours in before hand? Mine are quite a mess. Unsure whether I'd want to cut out all of the crap first or to just stick them over the un-even surface.

A little pricey but they do look the dogs danglies. Are they actually carbon fibre?

That looks amazing. Very jealous!!! Bet it's a proper track weapon..

I'd like to know too. Mine are dreadful at the moment. You got any pics mate?

Might be a stupid question, but I'm genuinely asking :)

Does the air bag come with the 197 wheel? Is that the one I saw with the Red colour coding?

Means very little to me lol. What is the Clio fitment, 15X7 I presume then?

Any update on this? Keen to pick up a set or 888s. Cheers
